Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon capers
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed
- 1 8-ounce piece of Feta cheese (not crumbled)
- 2 large beefsteak tomatoes, sliced 1/2-inch thick
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, or 1 teaspoon dried thyme

- 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
- 6 cups arugula
Directions
- In a small bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of the oil, the lemon juice, capers, and parsley. Set aside.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until just tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain and run under cold water.
- Cut the Feta into 4 slices. Set aside to drain on paper towels.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Season the tomato slices with thyme, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Cook until lightly browned, about 1 minute per side.

- Arrange the arugula, tomatoes, beans, and Feta on plates and drizzle with the vinaigrette.
